RE: column width... I don't have permission to access those files on the server...
We can only change the content...
Under \I1\HDMI
because the INF is not standard
hey if that is the only change i have to make manually WOO HOO...
two other problems i have not nailed down yet are Control panel fields
we need to do those manualy for now too... NBD
and WLAN and LAN have extra Info that i blieve will have to also be entered manually
I will have to see...
but i think speed and connection type and wireless type all will probably have to be manually entered
Hey looks good! Did the code help?
Are you working on the quotes in the inf titles?
Um i never even looked at it ... LOL
i was on a mission...
the quotesw dont bother me one way or the other...
edit...
i have a routine now that finds many of the control Panels

Re: Add a "Default Option" to DPs_Base (2 replies, posted in Feature Requests)
deleteing the base INI acomplishes this already... (and it is a one button solution too
)
I don't see a logical solution to provideing a default install location.
But i am open on that
(I could write our own installer application LOL)

Re: [MagicIso] Multiboot error (7 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
error 2 is not DriverPacks related
error 1 indicates that the driverpacks were not copied to the target PC.
Since you still have not given us any details i am at a loss to answer you....
BUT... my guess is you used DriverPacks Method 2 but then did not select DriverPack MassStorage on all of the sources.
that is the minimum that you can select and have it work...

usually it is just a hiccup.

how far does the install get; text mode, winpe, GUI, does it finish?
what is the exact wording of the missing file report?
waht version of DriverPacks BASE did you use?
did the other OS's work OK?
Re: can you help me?
We can - but we need DETAILS!
this sounds like a simple problem so we will see... However
Technicaly this is off topic so i will move it to the "OTHER" forum later...

@Kickarse - God luv ya... I knew you were a team player!
It only took me about an hour and a half to code it from scratch
And it is written all by me in my style... (hardcore)
at this point it is probably easier for me to finish writing it,
as it is in my head, than to adapt anyone elses code
(even from a totaly awesome dude like you)
You can email me at any time you like - perhaps it may help - i won't know if i don't try...
If you like i will share with you too perhaps we can each benifit as a result!
Again i am quite pleased that you so freely donate your time and skills
Thanks a million...

my script works right?
Put your apps in the DriverPacks.net folder too...
so at the end of my dpinst script add the calls to your apps...
add your lines at the end of the script
- right above the :Done and Exit lines.
"%DPLoc%\myapp1"
"%DPLoc%\myapp2"
"%DPLoc%\adobe\setup"
:Done
EXIT
i don't see any reason that would not work...

Huh? The download server or the web server? I haven't seen this?
Simple CDN was hiccuping on DriverPack Graphics C... I bumped the file and it seems to be working again.
re CHangelogs
I spent 6 hours updateing the changelogs and other php files yesterday...
then i said - I am not doing this again...
i am 95% done with a program that generates the PHP content form the folders and INF files in a pack!
currently it gets about 95% of the info correct ther are some dupes and some variable names taht show up instead of the values of the variables... But it is close to done... I am never going to spend an entire day updateing the overview pages on the site ever again...
Once the page is correct you will know i nailed down that last 5%

Re: [IMPL] DP_Base 8.12.1 - Download buttons on UpdateChecker page. (2 replies, posted in Feature Requests)
incorrect assumption...
At that time we were paying for bandwith and had a limited amount to go around.
we forced people to the server because referers were used to prevent leaching
(in this way people can not link directly to the files - if they did they were denied access)
Only the links on our site would allow downloading this prevents bots from grabbing the files
daily, or hourly, or every five min, or whatever insanity some goofball could concieve.
(If the source of a request was not "driverpacks.net" it would fail...)
You are sort of right about the money thing...
However since we don't get any donations either way that is not it...
It's Because we don't / didn't have any money that we couldn't afford to go over our bandwidth
everybody wants it all for nothing - go figure - and then they want to complain about it too...
(yes i just took a shot at you - Teasing!!!! just teasing! )
in the last year there have been like five people that donated a few dollars each.
i am sure it was not even enough to cover Wim's hosting costs and a beer...
And is why downloading them from the program was never done...
So donations was not the reason it was setup that way (at least not directly)
It was because it was not possable - because there never were any donations.
free is one thing but having to dig into your own pockets is just wrong...
but That is NOT the main reason...
The main reason is because we think YOU SHOULD READ THE CHANGELOG!
And i don't see that reason changeing - and it is a valid reason
So if we take into account the fact that Simple CDN now donates our bandwith (Woo Hoo, those guys rock)
i suppose i could force the user to view the Change log and agree that they read it (like a license agreement) from base.
Perhaps we could take a look at download buttons again...
However you are not ever going to be able to get around clicking on multiple pages
because that would not be prudent. IE we just moved all the business graphics drivers from
DriverPack Graphics C to DriverPack Graphics B. Someone who was used to getting those files might download the same pack they
always did only to find out their drivers are no longer in the pack they thought they were...
So when they show up and say my drivers are missing!
I can say did you read the changelog? (you clicked on the button that said you did )
I'll take a look at this...
since our bandwith is now free -
* * * Thanks to Simple CDN! * * *
One of the main obsticals to this IS now gone...

PS i had considered this myself already, but more important issues seem to always creep in and push it aside

um...
I believe you are making a feature request sir!
moved...
I will take a look at it -
IDK if anything can be done about multi-select
- if it is an available option... then sure
my memory is that column width is not selectable
(I think it is calculated as a percentage of the box's size)
again, if it is supported as an option... then sure...
I hope so too... we will see OK?

Re: DriverPack_reference_wnt5_x86-32.ini Document (1 replies, posted in Feedback and Support - DriverPacks Base)
the directions are correct as written...
should be read as exclusions (when met) will stop further processing of the section.
At least one +hwid MUST exist / match or the section will not be used
If ANY -hwids exist at all then the entire section will be ignored
review
+ must exist
- cannot exist
then section processed
it is not neccessary, usually, to have more than one of these types of lines
Use the main packs as reference ther are some excellent examples in them... (DriverPack Graphics A)
req granted

Well... you are headed in the opposite direction we have always gone and i am sure you know that... lol
we want all the drivers all the time not some of the drivers some of the time and some of the drivers all the time...
having said that (and gotten it out of the way) rofl
i can see where it would be nice for a company that had 200 dell model XXXX PC's to have custom DriverPacks
look up your model in an index and download tailor made packs... Very cool Idea...
especially for laptops which always seem to be a PITA
this has Often been a topic of disussion and I am certainthere would be a huge demand for it...
teh initial time investment to get this off the ground would be huge...
on the other hand we have a few hundred thousand end users, a dozen or more may even help not so bad then
so from me you got
1) the official kibosh - about violation of our montra
2) An excited cry for more! Bring it on Dude!
Man i love it when you come over to our house and play!
